Sophie, so sounds like you are looking at my part of the Army, REME?
Yes it is
Kk so I am a 20 years served Warrant officer, I started my career as a Vehicle Mechanic and worked my way up
Our Electronics Technicians are a very enjoyable job, they will repair, maintain and modify a wide range off equipment such as radios, robots, electrical systems on vehicles, sighting systems , NVG and loads more
That’s great, is the training progressive and can you spend your time going over information you don’t understand? As I have no background knowledge
Yes, the training is very progressive and its just like being at collage or university you will learn theory and then put that knowledge into practice. You will be living with the same group of people on you course so you an l study together when things get difficult and most your staff looking after you will also be electronic technicians so they are on had to hep also.
That’s good to know and pleased to tell you its my first job choice. Is there anything you think i should know about and any points that might be good to talk about at my selection interview.
Good to hear its your first choice, it is a very rewarding career both in experience and qualifications.
Not really any points you should talk about just be yourself and do a bit of research into the job from what's on the Army website and you will be fine :)
Great, one last question do you know how request the intakes are for training?
Frequent*
Due to the length of the training there are about 3-4 courses that run every year
Okay thank you for answering my questions today, you were very helpful :)
Np hope to see you soon in the Corps :)
Hi, am willing to apply in an engineering role and my three options I choose are vehicle mechanic, aircraft technician and avionics technician. Have only got a C in my English and not in maths am I still able to apply for all three or just one
Emmanuel yes you can still apply but we would then have to look at the jobs available and if you preform well at the assessment centre and on all our tests scores are high we can have a close look at your GCSEs
